Notes are printed on paper composed of pure cotton at two Ottawa companies contracted for the purpose. Bills continue to be improved, with the latest design placed into circulation on 17 March, 2004. Some of the printing on a 100 is textured so that it is easy to feel, quite different from normal printing.Īll Canadian banknotes underwent a major redesign in 1986, partially to incorporate some of the latest anti- forgery methods. This "micro-printed" background is very hard to copy. The front had a wavy background of extremely small but still clear numeral 100s. It also had a holographic sticker showing the amount in the top left side, which changes from gold to green when tilted. On the reverse side was a wilderness scene with Canada Geese. It featured, on the front, a portrait of Sir Robert Borden, the coat of arms, and a picture of the Centre Block of Parliament. The older "Birds of Canada" design remained in circulation as of late 2004. As well as textured printing, this new 2004 design incorporates a special tactile feature similar to Braille dots for the blind indicating the denomination.
